Chamberlain Gets a Send or ON His
Mission of Peace.
LONDON, Oot ga meeting was held at
Ellington to-day in honor of Mr.. Joseph
Chamberlain Resolutions were adopted ex-
pressing satisfaction at his appointment to
the fisheries commission and the trust that
he would be successful in his announced in
tention to promote harmony and good will
between the United States and England. Mr..
Chamberlain replied that he appreciated this
reference to the honorable and important
mission upon which he would embark in the
course of a few days. He was well aware
that the task was full of difficulty. The
question was complicated one and it in
volved enormous interest. (Cries of hear,
hear. )On several occasions during the present
century it had gone far toward endangering
the amicable relations existing between the
two great branches Of the Anglo Saxon race,
whose cordial smity must be the earnest de-
sire of every friend OF peace and civilization.
(Cheers.) Unfortunately the difficulties in
his way were not those inherent in the case
or directly involved in the issue to be deeid-
ed.
They all had seen telegram stating that
Americans would do all in their power
to mar his mission and would be able to pre-
vent its success. The sources of the state
ment might be tainted, yet it represented the
undoubted fact that Irish Americans were
ready to use every effort to prevent settle
ment. There had never been time
during the last thirty years when
the Irish in America had not
been willing to use the privileges conceded
to them by their adopted country in order to
SOW dissension and promote ill-feeling be-
tween GreatssBritain and America C"Hear.
Hear.'O More than once they had shown
Sbai, To IA nt
ests of their adopted country in order to
avenge real or fancied injuries. He
was not ssnguine enough to anticipate
that on the present occasion they
would change their policy, but he was en-
couraged by the belief that the vast majority
of native Americans and every Englishnan
and Scotchman in the United Kingdom would
regard fratrieidal conflict between the two
countries as a crime of the deepest dye.
They were earnestly DESTROYS of an
amicable and honorable settlement and
would not allow 1t to De
ieopardized by party rumor of personal feel
ings This would be his last speech before
leaving for America, Mr.. Chamberlain de-
clared, so he would refer to another telegram
stating that the Toronto Globe had COM
mented on some words in one of
his speeches in Ulster, constituting
them into insult to all Canadians. There was
a great Misrepresentation of his meaning,
What he had sold was that there was part
of Canada seeking commercial union with
the United States, which would practically
mean free trade between Canada and the
United States; while at the same time Can
ada was to continue to impose protect
i've duties on imports from the
mother country. Canada was to give
preference to every article of manufacture
from the United States over manufactures
from Great Britain. He had said if the peo-
pie of Canada desired an arrangement of that
kind he did not doubt that they would be
able to secure it. He did not
think anybody in England would
attempt to prevent such an arrangement
by force, but he remarked that in that case
all the advantages of the slender tie which
still bound Canada to England
would disappear, and it was not
likely that the people of Great Bri-
tain would continue much longer to sus-
tain the obligations and responsibilities
of relationship ell the reciprocal benefits
of which has been withdrawn. So he has
said that commercial union of this kind if it
ever came about would be the first step
towards signal and practical separation.
